D*A*M Stompboxes
Drag N Fly Hybrid Fuzz
"Hybrid Fuzz Tones" What the hell does that mean? The Drag'n'Fly is a hybrid fuzz box, as in it uses both a germanium and a silicon transistor within its circuit design. The advantage of this being you have the rich low frequency textures of the germanium transistor and the tight focused high end bite of the silicon. The overall tone has more means to cut through the mix whilst retaining a warm full bodied flavour. The silicon/germanium combination is also beneficial in stabilising any temperature fluctuation problems you'd find with an all out germanium fuzz box. The Flys circuit design at heart is essentially a derivative of the Arbiter Fuzz Face with certain combined elements and trickery of the Vox Tone Bender circuit. In a nutshell, its my favourite elements of '68 silicon Fuzz Face and a '66 germanium Vox Tone Bender slightly tweaked for more gain, greater headroom and more tonal scope all rolled up in a compact user and Wah friendly package. For a Yaff* it's a pretty unique sounding fuzz box that has some very interesting sonic capabilities.
